XSF is proud to manufacture 100% USA-made truss relied on by live production professionals across the country. That commitment doesn’t stop in Sulphur Springs, it extends through a carefully selected network of authorized distributors who share our standards for performance, reliability, and expertise. Each distributor brings a host of industry experience to every production they support.
In Texas and beyond, Entertainment Rigging Services (E+RIG) represents exactly what that partnership looks like in practice, a full-service resource for not only truss, but automation, rigging hardware, and the real-world production knowledge to back it all up.
Authorized XSF Truss Distributor | Supporting Texas and National Productions
Entertainment Rigging Services (E+RIG) is an authorized distributor of XSF Truss based in Texas, supporting live productions across the United States. With deep roots in high-pressure live event environments, E+RIG provides production teams, touring acts, and event coordinators with access to precision-manufactured, 100% USA-made XSF truss systems built for performance when timing and reliability matter most.
Built in the Field. Proven Under Pressure.
Founded and operated by Tim Kruse, E+RIG is headquartered in Greenville, Texas and built on a career immersed in live entertainment rigging. This is a company shaped by real-world production demands, not theory.
E+RIG has earned its reputation by consistently delivering on complex, high-visibility productions where execution must be exact and timelines leave no room for error. Their work is trusted by producers, tour managers, and coordinators who require solutions that perform exactly as expected, every time.
Where Timing Is Measured in Minutes
Few productions highlight this level of precision more than the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day halftime show.
Each year, a full stage must be deployed, assembled, and performance-ready in approximately six minutes, then completely cleared in under three. There is no margin for adjustment.
E+RIG has been a key part of the team executing this operation, supporting multiple productions including performances by Dolly Parton and Lainey Wilson. Their role in these environments reflects a level of preparation, coordination, and reliability that only comes from experience at the highest level of live production.
Automation, Rigging, and Structural Systems
E+RIG is a premier provider of Kinesys automated motion control systems, including Apex, Elevation 1+, Libra, and Digihoist. These systems are widely used across global touring and large-scale productions where precision motion and repeatability are critical.
In addition, E+RIG supplies CM Entertainment products from Columbus McKinnon, including Lodestar chain motors and hoists that remain an industry standard for lifting and rigging applications.
This combination of automation, rigging hardware, and structural systems allows E+RIG to support complete production requirements from a single, knowledgeable source.
XSF Truss | Built Right for Fast Deployment
As an authorized XSF distributor, E+RIG provides access to the full line of XSF truss systems for both sale and rental. These systems are engineered for strength, reduced weight, and efficient assembly, making them ideal for productions where speed and reliability are critical.
For high-demand environments like stadium shows, touring rigs, and rapid deployment stages, XSF truss delivers the consistency and performance required to execute without compromise.
Custom configurations are also available, ensuring structural systems align with the specific demands of each production.
Real-World Experience. Not Just Product Knowledge.
What separates E+RIG is not just the equipment they supply, but the experience behind it.
This is a team that operates inside the same environments their clients work in. They understand rigging challenges, timing constraints, and the realities of load-in, show execution, and strike.
Clients are not simply sourcing equipment. They are working with a partner who understands how every component performs in real-world conditions.
